76ers Re-Sign Iguodala

 The Philadelphia 76ers and Andre Iguodala have agreed to a six-year, $80 million contract. Bringing Iguodala back into the fold gives the 76ers a dangerous starting 5 of Iguodala, Andre Miller, Thaddeus Young, Elton Brand, and Samuel Dalembert. The 6ers have lost big man Jason Smith to a knee injury and look to replace him with free agent and former 6er Theo Ratliff. The 6ers have built a very nice squad and look poised to make a lot of noise in the upcoming season.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Mo Williams was the center piece of a 3 team trade that sent Mo to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavs sent guard Damon Jones to the Milwaukee Bucks and forward Joe Smith to the Oklahoma City franchise. The Oklahoma City team also gained forward Desmond Mason while sending Luke Ridnour and Adrian Griffin to Milwaukee.

The Bucks remained active in the off season as they've signed former Sonics and Spurs big man Francisco Elson. The Spurs and veteran guard Michael Finley have agreed on a new contract. The Atlanta Hawks continue to get stronger as they signed combo guard Flip Murray. The Los Angeles Lakers have signed former Clipper Josh Powell, and the Suns have signed Louis Amundson.

Europe continues to raid NBA talent as former Hornet Jannero Pargo signed a 1 year deal worth $4 million dollars with Moscow Dynamo. The guaranteed money in Russia trumped serious bids made by the Spurs and Hawks. He joins former Nets forward Bostjan Nachbar who also left the NBA for greener pastures. In another trip across the Atlantic guard Dan Dickau has signed a two-year deal to play with Avellino of the Italian League.
